Gali Janardhan Reddy is an Indian businessman and politician, well-known for his involvement in the iron ore mining industry, particularly in the Bellary region of Karnataka. The crest-fallen legislator is in the news over his son. His son, Kireeti Reddy, is the hero of an upcoming youthful entertainer titled Junior. This is his debut.
Many were surprised to find Sreeleela opposite Kireeti when the film's teaser was released on Friday. How come Sreeleela, who is acting alongside superstars like Pawan Kalyan and an established name like Ravi Teja, is romancing a newbie? Well, Junior is actually a 'senior'. The project was announced more than three years ago. For whatever reasons, it ran into trouble, delaying its completion.
Had Junior released on time and become a flop, Sreeleela might not have bagged a blockbuster like Dhamaka and other big-ticket movies like Ustaad Bhagat Singh and Mass Jathara. She got to debut with Pelli SandaD, a musical festival-season hit. In some industries, timing is everything. When you debut and in which film you do so determines the durability of your career. Talent plays a secondary role.
